I stayed for five nights at this hostel and I was lucky to enjoy and 8 people dorm for myself. The hostel seems pretty new. The room was spacious and it had two bathrooms inside. Location was good, easy to reach by bus and it was also very quiet. The hostel has a well equipped kitchen and a pool area with a deck. That was really nice. I found the staff to be accomodating and attentive.

Fantastic stay the hostel was centrally located with great facilities like a rooftop to sit and enjoy a book,lovely kitchen and nice comfortable beds.Host was lovely I spent ages chatting with him and he gave me a list of what to do in my time in Malta which was great for when I wasn't sure what to do that Location was also fantastic as we were basically in the middle of the overall 'city' area of malta so at Julian's and Valletta were all easy to walk to.Despite the location the street itself was nice and quiet with some lovely shops,grocery stores,cafes and restaurants close.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Everything was clean, the room was pretty quiet, there are 3 toilets, one im the room, the other two in the common area, and two bathrooms. Kitchen and leisure rooms were quite nice and there were loads of dishes. Beach is nearby as well as the stores. And there is a very cheap bakery just above the hostel. Guests are really quiet. Use the jacuzzi, it is cool! The staff was really really nice and helpful! Would recommend!

    This is by far the best Hostel I've ever been to: pretty cheap, but excellent services. Nice, comfortable and clean rooms, an amzin living room and kitchen, forthcoming staff etc... I'm still a little incredulous because it exceeded my expectations that were shaped by other hostels that aren't as good as this
